Lack of Safety Clothing or Equipment
All employers have a duty to take reasonable care for the safety of their staff. Employers must, by law, provide a safe working environment for their employees.
Employers are required to provide adequate safety clothing and equipment in order to protect employees from the risk of harm. If an employer fails to provide such clothing or equipment and an accident occurs causing personal injury, they may have to pay the employee compensation for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity suffered.
If you have suffered an accident at work which could have been prevented if appropriate safety clothing or equipment had been provided, Ashton Morton Slack’s experienced personal injury team can help you claim compensation.
